I was just plain ANGRY about Matthew. Enough killing off stars already. I WAS hoping it was just a cliff hanger and next season they'd "raise him from the ashes" so to speak - - - but someone said they googled and the actor wanted off the show. Well, you already killed Sybil to get HER off the show, couldn't you do something a little more creative and LESS painful than another killing?

I had MORE thoughts than these roaming around in my brain about this season of Downton, but maybe I'll just do a post of my own.

So far, I've only watched the first two seasons on a friend's DVD; can't bear to watch it on German telly with German voices... (Maggie Smith does NOT sound like Maggie Smith in that language!) So I'll have to wait until my friend buys the next set and lends it to me.

Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success. Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success. Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream.
